The rate of most chemical
reactions will increase in higher temperatures, however this is
not true for many other chemicals. The best temperature for each
chemical reaction needs to be researched. Excess heat in many cases
can lower the rate of reaction or even reverse the reaction. In
some other cases excess heat may result in a different product other
than what is expected.

For gas producing reactions the
rate of reaction may be observed and visually compared by the
speed of balloon inflations

Project
description:
In this project you will select a simple gas producing chemical reaction
and then study the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction. Use
the results of your experiments to create a graph.
